Question 1

why is poop full of lettuce?

Accepted Answer

Lettuce: Humans do not digest green leafy vegetables well, hence many times an individual may still see semi-digested products within the stool.

Question 2

i have been eating a lot of green leafy foods, now i have green poop. is it bad? should i stop eating spinach, lettuce, and veggies? what should i do?

Accepted Answer

No : No, plz do not stop.  Now, i believe in moderation even in moderation.  Have some greens with each meal and vary them.  Also make sure your chewing properly.  It could be that you are not chewing enough and that's why your poop is so green...Hope this helps.

Question 3

what causes green poop in adults can eating a lot of lettuce and spinach make your poop color green i had green poop today i was curious is that healthy or is it a sign of cancer?

Accepted Answer

: The stool color is provided by the bile from the liver that is adds to fecal debris. It starts out a deep green &amp; slowly changes thru greens to yellows to browns as the germs in the intestines metabolize the bile. Green generally means the stool in question moved through faster or was subject to less change by gut germs.

Question 4

healthy eating last 2 years recently noticed that whenever i eat leaves the next day my poo is filled with whole leaves undigested, toilet full. norm?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Certain foods will not be broken down fully.   So will see them in your stool.  Also seems like you are on good bowel cycle.  So things are working well.  Keep eating well and exercising.

Question 5

Question 6

why do i go to poop like 5 times a day ?but my wight is always the same and when i whipe i see undigested food

Accepted Answer

New info: You've added some additional info now, and it sounds like you definitely need to see your physician for evaluation.  Some common digestive disorders can show up in young adulthood, and if present, you deserve effective treatment.  If this happens with only certain foods, you may simply be sensitive to them -- but this isn't clear from what you've shared so far.  Please get yourself checked out.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

IBS: Anxiety can increase frequency of bowel movements but does not affect digestion or assimilation of nutrients.

Question 8

if i get heartburn really bad then poop will it take my heartburn away?

Accepted Answer

Heartburn : Heartburn and bowel function are generally not related, though stress can certainly affect them both. I would suggest some ranitidine twice daily to help with heartburn, you can get that over-the-counter and follow directions on the box.
